7 bed detached house for sale

Low Byer Park, Alston CA9

This property really has the Tardis effect. Even the current owners recall the moment they walked into the house for the first time and realised how much bigger than expected it was inside - over 2770 square feet floor space.

The property is entered from the driveway via steps into the central hallway. This hallway can also be accessed internally directly from the garage.

The lounge is a generous room, situated to the front elevation with large picture glass frontage, taking advantage of the open rural views due to the elevated position of the property. Sliding doors give access to the balcony which is perfectly positioned with a South Westerly aspect for enjoying the summer evenings al fresco. The lounge also has an attractive brick effect feature fireplace with oak mantle.

To the rear elevation, looking out onto the rear garden is the dining room, again benefiting from external sliding door. Attractive flooring and décor make this room a pleasure to be in.

The kitchen is generous in size and again situated to the rear elevation with triple width window out to the rear garden and terrace. There is an external door and a great range of modern base and wall units offering plenty of drawers, cupboards, worktop space and ample room for utilities.

The family bathroom is next along the hall with suite comprising panelled bath, separate shower cubicle, WC and hand wash basin. Part tiling to walls and frosted window to the rear elevation. A handy linen cupboard is just around the corner.

There are four bedrooms currently situated on this floor including the master with en-suite, as well as a double room with fitted wardrobes and handy under-stair recessed area.

Stairs lead up from the central hallway to the top floor which hosts three very spacious bedrooms, a further bathroom and additional separate WC.

The top floor landing has a spacious area which currently has a sofa and lamp which creates a lovely area to sit and read.

Externally the property offers front and rear gardens, the rear having a raised patio seating area and open fields behind. To the front a large double width driveway gives parking for four cars as well as the space within the large garage with twin doors.

Alston is the highest market town in England and boasts a location, deep in the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, surrounded by rolling valleys, woodland and heather moorland. Alston town has two small supermarkets, and handful of pubs and hotels, golf course, local hospital, fuel stations and steam railway. Local larger towns of Penrith and Hexham are within easy reach for more comprehensive amenities if needed.

The Lake District is less than an hour away, as is Hadrian's Wall and the Pennine Way walking route runs right through the nearby fells. Rural walks are aplenty around Alston and the A689 is regarded as one of the best roads in the country to drive due to the nature of the countryside and surrounding views.
